New Weavers
This was the scene yesterday (Sat. April 4) around 2 pm. All 3 students were weaving their headers after beaming, theading and sleying their warps.

Beginning Weaving Workshop
Well, I didn’t finish the warp on the AVL, but I’m about as ready for the Beginning Weaving workshop tomorrow as I can be. I’ll bring my own warping board to demo on, but I’ve wound the warps for everyone. Once everyone is working on their own, I’ll wind the next warp for the guild…
